Description

🚶‍♂️ 5' - ⛰️ 1850 MSL - 🧭 NW / SW - ☀️ In the afternoon for the overhangs, all day for the slabs

Covel Pejo is a great Summer crag, located on the ski slopes of the Pejo facility.
The area is stunning. The wall overlooks a beautiful lawn, surrounded by peaks higher than 3000 meters. The lawn is cut by a stream and a nice waterfall can be easily reached in a couple of minutes from the sector.
The crag suits strong climbers, looking for high difficulties on overhanging walls, and first timers or children. In fact the Overhangs sector has steep crimpy lines with many lines on the 8b difficulty. The lines on the 7c grade are quite tough. The Slabs sector has really easy lines on compact slabs.
The rock is rough and very ferrous, friction is good.
Covel Pejo, thanks to the height of 1850 meters, is a Summer crag. The overhanging sector is shady during the morning and some hours after noon, while the slabs are all day in the sun.
The really easy approach and the comfortable base, make this place a good destination to enjoy a whole day here, also for families.

All the mountains around this area are beautiful and deserve a visit. There is a nice cableway called Pejo 3000 starting from Pejo fonti and reaching the height of 3000 meters above sea level.

History

Covel Pejo has been recently re-bolted and many new hard lines and connections were set up.
